Well, I have another opportunity to get the word out about my Doughnut Dreams Project. There is a bakery we visit whenever we get the chance, that makes the best chocolate-frosted doughnuts. We call them "brown doughnuts".
I talked with the owner today, and made arrangements to pay for a dozen doughnuts for her to hand out to her first 12 customers on National Doughnut Day. I will give her a business card, postcard, or card with my blog's address to give to these customers, along with the chocolate doughnut, in hopes they will visit my blog and consider participating. I may make it 13 doughnuts, to make it a baker's dozen...I wish I could buy a brown doughnut for everyone that day!
I really enjoy the idea of surprising people with a fresh-baked doughnut!--especially on a Friday, at the end of the work week. Now I need to get to work making cards to go with those delicious doughnuts!

What a cool idea Lisa! We have a vendor at our Sunday farmer's market that sells amazing 'brown doughnuts' - it's funny they sell all organic produce that they grow on a commune/ashram - super healthy, kale, beets, greens, and then chocolate doughnuts on the side :) I love the duality of that...
ReplyDeleteMaybe there's a way that I could pass on your Doughnut Dreams project to them?
I love that duality, too!--I wonder if they would share their secret recipe for healthy doughnuts?
ReplyDeleteYes, you could pass on the project to them. I could mail you some cards to distribute, along with a check for some doughnuts. They could do something similar--Giving out a baker's dozen to the first 13 customers, along with a card...If you feel comfortable approaching them, let me know what they say, and I would be happy to buy some doughnuts for a small crowd in Hawaii! Like you, I wish I could "pull an Oprah Winfrey" : )
Thanks, Elise!
